Yet, it could be different from what you expect. (I specifically asked others to test this feature to exclude possible problems with my machine/OS.)

Sigil is not a word processor and might behave differently. However, you won't actually find out what Sigil does unless you test this feature.

Because that's the way Create Index worked on my 32 Bit XP machine up to version 0.7.2.

I didn't design this feature and I don't know whether creating an index for all words in the epub if no index entries were pre-defined is a feature or an unintended bug.

(Hopefully, Meme will give some feedback on this.)

However, if the same software build behaves differently on two different machines/operating systems there is a distinct possibility that there's a bug in Sigil, unless it shouldn't have behaved as it did on x32 Windows machines in the past in the first place.
